If a 20,000 day war started on a Tuesday, what day will be the last day of the war?
I am pretty sure it is a Wednesday, but let me know what you get.

20000 divided by 7 is 2857 with a remainder of 1. So it will end 2857 weeks, plus one more day, after it started. So you're right, it will end on a Wednesday.

First, let's divide 20000 by 7 to see how many weeks that would be:
20000/7 = 2857.143 weeks ( = 54.945 years!)
Now, let's see what the .143 part means:
1/7 = 0.1428 =~ 0.143, which means that you were correct in saying that Wednesday would be the final day of the war.
The 20000 Day War: 2010 - 2064 (or 65)

1 = Tuesday
8 = Tuesday
15 = Tuesday
1+7n ~ 20000 --> n ~ 2857
1 + 7(2857) = 20000 = Tuesday
